Motor yacht AIR is an 81 metre (265.7 feet) ship which was designed by De Voogts, built by Feadship and is to be launched in Holland in 2011. Feadship Superyacht AIR has her interior design created by Remi Tessier Design and she was built at Koninklijke de Vries Scheepbouw with Naval Architecture by De Voogt and engineering design by De Vries and De Voogt. Yacht Air was built with a steel hull and with an aluminium superstructure.

Feadship’s AIR is one of the benchmark superyachts in a time where there have been significant recent advances in large private yacht design and an evolution of the products, processes and techniques employed in modern yacht building by the best yacht builders in the world. Feadship, with their fine pedigree of shipbuilding and their recent advances in construction technology showcase the latest in modern superyacht production.

Luxury yacht Air brings her wonderful ethereal name to her exterior design, the work of Remi Tessier in conjunction with the yacht’s owners. Inside, spaces relate harmoniously with the wall, floor and ceiling structural forms, creating a clean neutrality which is often inspiring. This inspiration also has Art to thank, in many cases, as beautiful artwork has been employed to brilliant effect in punctuating and enhancing M/Y AIR’s lovely interior ambience.

The boat’s interior is large and spacious, in the common areas such as saloon and dining room, and these flow naturally outside through large window and open doorway to similarly generous outdoor entertainment areas on aft and sundeck. At 81 metres in length, and with a beam of 11.6 metres, there is plenty of space for luxurious relaxation. The vessel easily accommodates her 12 guest in 6 roomy staterooms, including the owner suite. All accommodations are fully ensuited.  M/Y AIR has a fully certified heli pad which can, should a client require, be used for commercially operated aircraft.

Needless to say, the Air superyacht has a first rate international crew, headed up by Captain Mark Finch and Captain Stephen Warren, which is able to tend to guests’ every need, requirement and desire.

The Feadship AIR yacht will be crusing the Mediterranean and Europe in the summer of 2011.
